For anyone who hadn't caught it yet,I posted this elsewhere and tried to pawn it off as a real truck for April 1st.This truck is based on one I used to own back in the early 90's and worked like crazy..Great old chevy..It squats for a reason..It wouldn't normally squat so much,even i with this load of wood,but for the broken leaf springs.. :D

The truck looks great, especially outdoors! Those shots would definately fool an untrained person.

i caught a few napping today..lol..I was hoping people would just glance at it and not study the pic i posted too hard.Of the pics,I thought #3 down was most convincing..

The mirrors,rear window,tires and wing windows were the parts that I thought might get me busted...Not to mention the setting..

My plan is to park this in a fish tank(without water)in a forest with a junked out car rotting into the dirt.

Thanks for all the responses...Makes the work that went into it worthwhile.
